    Unexpected things you find that make you a Kid all over again

    Went to my Local library today to return some books when I decided to browse the books they had for sale. as I was going through the ten cent bin what did my wandering eyes gaze upon........a 1974 POTA coloring book in really nice condition. I remember having these as a kid.......love when unexpected small treasures that just absolutely take you back and for a moment you feel like a kid all over again......


    My scans.....








    and if that wasn't enough found an old strongman Joe Bonomo fitness book

    Can you rip a phone book apart now? Honestly though, Love the coloring book. I still like to leaf through coloring books to this day.

        That apes activity book is a really nice find. I'm digging the cover! The ape architecture looks cool in the background there.

                I had that book! I think my parents got it for me when I was sick with the flu. It gave me hours of enjoyment. Oh the simple joys of 70's life.

                  My parents did the same. Must be a healing power of crayons thing.
